Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray.

Peel, core, and slice the Granny Smith apples into thin wedges. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 6
Pour the melted butter over the dry mixture and stir until crumbly and well incorporated.
Step 7
Sprinkle the oat crumble topping evenly over the apples in the baking dish.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender when pierced with a fork.
